The team has been very busy. We went to see the Grand Canyon last week. They have finished pouring the porch, and they are now working on painting the building. We will be able to finish this project. We were working on the water line, but will not be able to finish it because the septic tank needs to be pumped. Yesterday we saw a hail storm coming and took the tents down. The kids are staying dry and safe by staying inside. The girls are staying in the church, and the boys are staying in the bus. It is very rainy. Some tents were broken in the wind. The electricity was out, so we were glad we had propane. Saturday will be our sightseeing day. We will be back on Aug. 2nd. We did not have a vacation Bible School because of the rain.

Thanks Beth, that’s what I figured. I’ll know by the morning of the 5th, so I’ll definitely call if I won’t be able to make it down there that night.

Beth – I can’t remember now, did we mark on the transportation card which day we planned to pick up? I know I was planning on Friday night but there’s a slim chance I won’t make it down until late late that night. (prayers that I can leave out early Friday morning are greatly appreciated!)

Kelly, If you can’t make it by 9PM, please wait until the next morning. They are getting up REALLY early and need as much sleep as possible. If you know are you not going to make it, please call ASAP.

I haven’t heard from Jimmy either just hoping he got his birthday care package.
Kelly I sent a Facebok friend request to you for the parents group about 3 weeks ago but haven’t heard anything yet.
So looking forward to having Jimmy home and praying for safe travel home.

No letter from Aaric other than the mandatory boot camp one, either. Which is really not too surprising.
Blands, are you guys on facebook? We’ve got a parents group on there, we’d love to have you!
